A Paterson silk manufacturer is reported as saying that for the sake of the working men he regretted to see any further disturb ance of the tariff. Personally, he said, the agitation had not the terrors for himself it once had, for, practically, the whole matter had resolved itself into question of wages. He felt an interest, he said, in continuing protection, for every change disturbs busi- ness till wages are adjusted to the needs of the situation. "But," he adds, f'seeing from past experience that it is the working people who have to bear the brunt of the disaster, and knowing, as I do, that it is their votes which put in office the man who is now fore most in this crusade against protecting their labor, I cannot take the interest in it I once did"

On the first of February a very important experiment. in giving instruction in manual
 training in the public schools will be begun
 in New York. Preparations have been for some time in progress, and facilities have been provided for applying the experiment to twelve of the city grammar schools and the primary schools connected with them. At first only three extra teachers will be em-
 ployed and only s15,090 is appropriated,
 though it is estimated that the total expense of introducing the plan in the whole school system would be SIPS, 300, with an annual expenditure for maintenance thereafter of $90,0o0. The subjects intended to be taught arc drawing, modelling, carpentry work, sewing and cooking. To make room for these there will be needed some changes in ] the present curriculum which it is important

In peace and sweet cortent, since those

How once, yea, twice he led, through bitter
